Solve : Batch script for/if not looping?

1.	Solve : Batch script for/if not looping?
Answer» Win XP SP.3 Why does the For loop in the FOLLOWING script not loop please? Code: [SELECT]@ECHO off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion cls set year=9 set month=8 set DAY=25 set cnt=1 for /f "tokens=%cnt%" %%1 in ("year month day") do ( if !%%1! lss 10 set %%1=0!%%1! set /a cnt+=1 ) echo !year!:!month!:!day! exit /b Because there is only one line being fed into the for loop. It does the action(s) for each line it is fed.See the lines in red @echo off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion cls set year=9 set month=8 set day=25 set cnt=1 :loop for /f "tokens=%cnt%" %%1 in ("year month day") do ( if !%%1! lss 10 set %%1=0!%%1! set /a cnt+=1 ) if %cnt% LSS 4 goto loop echo !year!:!month!:!day! Thank you both. V.
